Alex Wakefield

Iowa, USA (1979 – )

I’m Alex Wakefield, a motorsport artist and enthusiast. As a little kid growing up in Iowa, I’d always been fascinated by machinery, the pre-race build up and the stories of how those great races happened. I like to give my own interpretation on how I see a given period in racing that I find interesting- a more colorful, emotional piece or a precise technical exercise to help convey my visual story. I don’t feel like I need to be pinned to one style, as I like the freedom of portraying motorsport in different ways. I want to show motor sport from my viewpoint. I want to take the viewer on a colorful, exciting ride into a sport I’m passionate about. If it’s something that you, the viewer, are moved and inspired by, then all the better. Hope you enjoy what you see. Cheers, Alex
